I am not a divine man, but I should be , and I could be ,a much better man than I am now, some of my many human faults will never get better, I just pray they do not get worse..I have been taught to believe in a divine spirit, a divine power that's greater than anything in this earthly world, my mother always wanted me to be a preacher!...there was just no chance of that happening.....I watch how so many folks of the so-called Christian faith put so much emphasis on the one day, December 25...then I always remember what my grandmother told me years and years ago....for a old lady with no formal education she sure was smart!...she said "Christmas is EVERYDAY when you are living your life according to Christ"........So Merry Christmas to you all EVERYDAY!...........Ed Hill ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
